About Latoya

Hello my name is Latoya Arrington I am currently living in Tomball Texas I am from Mississippi. I started doing caregiving at the age of 19 sitting with a elder lady who I meet near from my house who couldn't really help herself. But before sitting with her, at the age of 16-18 I use too help at my mother job that was also a CNA on weekends or during my summer break and became their volunteer worker. That one job gave me great passion in great dignity to want to go into field of caregiving. I personally love older people and young people but most definitely people that I can help that I know need me. I got a job at Ellisville State School vulnerable adult children and elderly who taught me so much and gave me great joy to move further. I learn so much throughout the years of how to be patient love concern the most definitely feel great of helping someone in need. I have so many skills in the field of caregiving and CNA that I have learned and took the time out to learn the right way I have worked with so many different individuals residence that keeps me moving forward.

Greetings, I've discovered that regardless of someones health condition or disability everyone deserves to have a good quality life and to be happy, thats way I became a "Compassionate Caregiver" it is so important to provide compassionate care to thoughes that need caring for. One of my good friends was in a car accident that left him as a Quadriplegic, now being such a young man, he became very depress with life and I had a problem with that so I decided to learn how to care for him and I did just that. I started by being Trained by the Healthcare facility free of charge were he lived. I started class room and hands on training for eight weeks and I had taken a CPR course. I did this so my friend could have a quality life. I also taken a course on how to transfer Quadriplegic patients so that I could transfer him the correct way from his wheel chair to my car and from the car to his wheelchair and back into the facility were he was living, that alowed us to go places, Dr appointments and places he liked going to. Then he stoprd looking at his self deficiencies but instead, he started loving life once again and loving people and we made the best of things. So he begin enjoying are times together once again just like old times and thats how I became a Home Healthcare Provider.
